Camps for the Week of July 11th - 14th, 2016:

Robotics
Gr K - 3
Gr 4 - 11
Long the stuff of dreams for science fiction writers and their readers, functioning robots have finally become a reality! Utilizing basic computer programming skills, students will be challenged to design and build robots that will be able to perform such tasks as running an obstacle course, following road courses, and picking up objects. As their proficiency with coding increases, students will be able to create more and more complex robot activities.

Camps for the Week of July 18th - 21st, 2016:

Think Like A Mad Scientist
Gr K - 3
Academics • Reading • Science/Technology
 Grab your lab coat and microscope, because we've got some science to do. Explore the wonderful world of science in all of its many shapes, forms, and attributes. Investigate sound and sound waves, observe and learn about chemical reactions, be transformed into junior biologists, chemists, and physicists engaged in making amazing discoveries and conducting equally amazing experiments, some of which may be earth changing. There young scientists in training will come home with many fascinating and magical experiments to share with the family. This class will be sure to nurture your child’s love of science and awe of the world and universe in which we live. Who knows, you might just send them on their way to taking over the world!

Amusement Park Physics
Gr 4 - 8
Academics • Science • Science/Technology
 Who doesn’t love amusement parks? Wouldn’t it be cool to design your own ride? If you can dream it, it can be built. How will you build it? What materials will you use? How will things like gravity, wind, heat, cold, and water affect your amazing new ride? You will discover the answers and solutions to your questions in this class as our ride-builders exchange ideas and help each other turn their rides into realities! This class will culminate in the building of an incredible Rube Goldberg machine. If you don't know what that is, look it up. After watching a few videos, your child will undoubtedly be itching to build one of their own.

Here are some facts:
  • Most students lose about two months of what they learned in math over the summer months.
  • Low-income students lose more than two months in reading achievement.
  • Parents consistently say that summer is the most difficult time to ensure that their children have productive things to do.
  • Our children’s’ need to learn does not end in May when the school doors close. They need to stay active and engaged, which also helps them stay on track academically when they return to school in August.
